8st 8lb |
Made all at Pontefract (5f) in August and he's 6lb lower now back on AW; however, this 10yo has failed to fire on grass on his last three outings and he's 0-15 on AW. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both of his wins from 41 starts have been on turf, the most recent in October 2023, but he was unlucky not to finish closer at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 31 days ago; each-way claims if things drop right for this hold-up performer. |
7/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Always had his quirks and again hung left when a beaten-favourite at Southwell last time; usually dropped in and that will likely be the case again from the outside stall, in which case he'll need things to pan out ideally down from 7f. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-13 on AW but he is fully effective on Tapeta; the step up to 7f didn't yield instant dividends at Wolverhampton 16 days ago but he didn't get chance to show his true colours, tight for room inside the final furlong and having to switch right before keeping on steadily; this more spacious track could see him in a better light. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Usually leads or races prominently; two sprint wins in 2025, the latest over 6f at Thirsk (good to firm; when 3lb higher) last May, but he was quiet towards the end of the campaign and has been off since August; perhaps other days. |
14/1 |

17th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Two wins this year, the latest when making all over 6f at Thirsk in May; there have been some excuses since then and his record at this track means he can't be ignored. |
7/1 |
|
9th 2 (5) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Still below a winning mark despite two successes since March (5f on Tapeta and 6f on fast turf), but yet to oblige on genuinely slow turf and a record of 85577 around here doesn't set the pulse racing. |

1st Jan 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Five-time C&D winner but the last was in March 2023; mark has bottomed out but he will need to better his two C&D runs this autumn to win. |

8th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Multiple C&D winner but the last of them was back in March 2023; sent off favourite for a 0-55 here on his return from a break last month and ran creditably; dangerous off a lowly mark. |

7th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Hasn't run badly the last twice (weakened over 6f here last time) and returning to 5f looks in his favour; handicapped to go well. |
6/1 |

6th 7 (7) |
18th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back to form when third at Redcar 16 days ago (5f, soft; second run in blinkers); neither the longer trip or faster ground will be a problem and the new visor could give him a lift. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Nine-time winner who has not scored since September 2024 but he finished well to go close at Catterick (5f, good) last week; looks interesting off same mark and this step back up in trip is a positive. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (4) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time turf winner who went close at Newcastle (5f, AW) last September and races off 7lb lower today; however, last season ended tamely and this 9yo finished down the field on last month's reappearance. |
7/1 |
|
12th 9 (10) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Veteran with a better record on AW than turf; 5f on fast ground no problem for him and he has run well after an absence in the past (although not last year); good run wouldn't be a surprise but others appeal more for win purposes. |

9st 12lb |
5f winner at Beverley in April and he went close at Carlisle 16 days ago (winner was well treated); 2lb rise not ideal but he's fine on soft; additional yardage should suit at this flat track. |
